Final Fantasy VIII - EYES ON ME (piano collections)

[clarkeyqe2]

Ok so I stand corrected on asking you to do some FF pieces, these are easily the best versions of the FF soundtrack on Piano I have heard yet. You are awesome! :)

[Sannk0]

Is that a naruto paiting on the wall to the right :O?

[UnpredictableKO]

@Sannk0 looks like it! ^^

[saramudo1985]

this was my wedding song. ^_^

[CrownedWithLaurels]

@saramudo1985 Seriously?! That is fucking brilliant! What a great choice!

[KiraCoil]

Thank you. Thank you for this. So much. /moved

[Enoa7]

when i hear this, i feel like playing Cloud/laguna running around the bar in windmill village

[TheRozza333]

the picture looks like an upside down dick on the right side of the screen lol

[KAiTDoGgY]

@TheRozza333 i just turned on this vid, im like i hope to god someone commented on the dick looking picture and im not the only one with my mind in the gutter, saw your comment and laughed out loud

thank you

[TheRozza333]

@KAiTDoGgY we must be the only two people who saw this video who have filthy minds i guess

[bladerunnertx]

@TheRozza333 hes had that pic for a long time i still cant figure it out, i think its Naruto holding up his right hand palm showing...but a lot of people have asked what that picture is and have not gotten an answer.

[StefanSCC]

Amazing.

[kristianyusak]

Uploaded by kylelandry on Feb 22, 2008, and people still argue. Kyle, you're the best!!

Btw, where can I find the piano sheet (kyle version)?

[XxpinchvaginazXxxXXX]

Is that a drawing of naruto?if so cool drawing

[SeaSaltSunset]

just thought i'd squeeze a comment in the fight....

sorry guys, but could ya give it a rest?

[sars0928]

I'm supposed to be studying for my finals, and instead I'm listening to your beautiful renditions of my favorite composer :DD

[cowzilla8]

Just my opinion, I think the second to last note should be a G instead of G#, because the sharp makes the ending a little more eerie, while replacing it with a natural sounds more settled. Just a thought.

[catsbitemyface]

@cowzilla8 Go clean his piano with your tongue. Suck my penis you piece of fuck. I hate you. Nobody likes you. He is perfect. Just trying to give you some constructive criticism :)

[cowzilla8]

@catsbitemyface Dude, chill man. I'm just saying what the music should sound more like, not hating the person at all. In fact, he's one of my inspiration to continue to play the piano. Sheesh, if you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say it.

[catsbitemyface]

@cowzilla8 Hahaha, sorry man, my lady friend is a crazy ff lady. Although it wasn't me who actually said that, I still kinda agree with her. I like the way it ended. I think if he wanted to end it completely, he would have. Sometimes, as a musician, it's fun to end in different ways

[cowzilla8]

@catsbitemyface Well, maybe it's because of how people listen to music in a different perspective. I, myself, have learned how to play this piece, but I just feel the second to last note a little bit out of sort to sound like that. I guess that it's just the way that I listen to music. Only that part, everything else is beautiful.

Lol, if that's true, then why's the word "penis" in her criticism?

[catsbitemyface]

@cowzilla8 It really does just depend on the person. Improv can really make you creative and susceptible to different sounds. I agree, it does sound out of place, but I like the random creativity that he put into it.

Haha, she's a little different

[cowzilla8]

@catsbitemyface Actually, that is how it was written.

I see........

[catsbitemyface]

@cowzilla8 So you're complaining because he played it how it was written?

[cowzilla8]

@catsbitemyface You're just so misguided.....................­.shouldn't even talk to you anymore if you're keeping this up......

[catsbitemyface]

@cowzilla8 Why don't you reply like a mature human being? If I'm "misguided", tell me what you meant. Let's not act like high school girls please?

[cowzilla8]

@catsbitemyface Lol, like you're the one to talk, cussing me out earlier, saying immature words and phrases. If you have hit puberty yet, please let me know, since I don't see any sign of it.

[catsbitemyface]

@cowzilla8 Hahaha, dude, when you lose, you lose. Just stop. Kyle Landry does improv he doesn't play note for note.

[cowzilla8]

@catsbitemyface I don't see how I lose, since nothing you say makes any sense. If you can read sheet music, he's clearly playing what's written. But I guess you just don't accept the truth when people say it.

[catsbitemyface]

@cowzilla8 1. When you lose one argument, you go back to another.

2. I don't read sheet music. I play by ear.

3. Thank you for clarifying what you meant.

4. I just played it both ways and I agree that the natural note sounds much better. It gives it an end almost

[cowzilla8]

@catsbitemyface 1. Hah, like that makes any sense, since I haven't lost the argument, you have.

2. and 4. Sure, like I should believe you after all you say, pretending that that first comment was someone else, then giving the same attitude. It's better to tell the truth than to lie man.

3. It's because you clearly don't understand what I mean, since you been saying about the same thing over and over again, while I was talking about something else.

[catsbitemyface]

@cowzilla8 1. Just stop. I really don't care at this point and neither should you.

2. You know what, I really don't care if you believe me or not. I'm letting you know that I agree with you.

3. Duh, I basically told you I misunderstood what you said. It's miscommunication and I'm sure you're not too unfamiliar with it.

4. Stop being a dick dude. There's no point. Enjoy the music and just stop arguing

[cowzilla8]

@catsbitemyface I was also hoping too that this would stop. And 4. I wasn't, you where. I was being honest.

[StasisCube]

While it's hard to enjoy them as much now, having played them a couple times apiece, FF's were most definitely my favorite, and the best games I've ever played. I so wish I could forget them completely and play them over again.

[BabaUnity]

i wont forget ff series till the end of time ..

[rubigv91]

I've fell in love with the celes theme that I heard on your old account... pleeease marry me xD I don't know you but I love you ~

[ebaNelvaNme]

Ok fine I stopped at the start cause I know it would sound exactly like the one on my iPod ..-.- k. :)

[gliepner]

subscribed. best cover I've heard all day while looking for this song on youtube.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COVERING THIS!!!!!

I'm gonna go back and play FF8 again <3

[thuzzard]

I need this in LOSSLESS :(

[OfficialJab]

5 people didn't have eyes on the Like button.

[horekar]

@OfficialJab 1 person failed at getting thumbs up.

[lykanime]

all i did was to close my eyes, then tears fell down..slowly.. i really love this piece interpretation..

[acexvii]

I always use your videos to see if I'm playing the piece right when I'm performing Final Fantasy. I'm actually giving a college recital featuring Eyes On Me, Farmboy, Tifa's Theme and Shuffle or Boogie along with some various songs for voice. I've found that its very helpful to listen to other people perform the pieces so you can get a feel of how its suppose to sound.

[music0is0my0wife]

this is just what i'd always hoped to find. it is perfect in its own rite.

[rosalie013]

I made a playlist dedicated to just your wonderful music which I have appropriately named "Eargasms"

[BlueCosmo]

I absolutely love this song - you are so good!

[KawaOnefoot]

Magnifique kylelandry :)

[rogerliciouz]

You rock :D

Love your version xD

[mojojojo82]

i love this song. outstanding the way it is played. where did you get the sheet. please let me know

[ronald017]

this is one of the best of the genius Nobuo Uematsu.. and yours is one of the best interpretations i've heard.. great keyboard also.. :D

[ShadeNocturne]

Hey there, Kyle. I am also learning this piece, and I thought you should know that your rhythm for the second run in the song is incorrect.

The run consists of four eighth note triplets followed by four sixteenth notes and ends on a quarter note. It sounds like you're only playing sixteenth notes. Just thought you should know. Lucky I had a friend in drumline to help me with that odd rhythm. Cheers.

[1mj2288]

@kylelandry, do you also love naruto? :D

[sandwichme1]

this was incredible :)

nostalgia central

[narukon96]

five people got their eyes on Kyle that they unknowingly hit the dislike button. HAHAHA. anyway, Kyle, you're da beeeest :D

[raymondjean]

did i just saw Naruto on the wall? XP

[wormfog]

i want this song on my wedding

[TheDestinyIslander]

5 people are blind and can't have their eyes on him.

[GRiMxSG]

@TheDestinyIslander Not bad haha

[archyteryx]

i thought the audio was recorded and ur pretending that ur playing it.. hehe then i heard a slight change of tempo.. ur a perfectionist indeed!

[Auriccle]

So beautiful... every time I hear this song my heart melts. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

[xoBboySoulox]

song, is.. sooo beast.

[Hailsy96]

Wow! This is beautiful! It touches my heart a little bit more for every second which goes by. I will never tire of listening to this. Thank you Kyle, You've made 94,792+ people happy :-) Well done Maestro!

[jcarrera9936]

[Primeal84]

[claire1909]

[somjetjui]

[c4t14c0]

COoOoOLLLLLLL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Aldonargo]

@Sayian505

That's not the Casio PX-800. That model has a bunch of Doodads on the sides. His model has none of that. It's straight up PIANO.

But uh, seriously what model IS that? It has an amazing piano sound.

[bkordel]

in this video he's playing a yamaha p-120, which he recently sold i hear. all his newer videos are the p-155

[AnotherSchmoe]

@Aldonargo:

It's a Yamaha P-120 (discontinued I think). He recently upgraded to a Yamaha P-155 though, which is featured in his latest batch of videos.

[XxXAznDragonXxX]

How much are thee? I'm thinking of selling a pretty old Keyboard that was once worth 15grand for $650 to get something new.

[dsn3]

Very smooth =)

[QudansJr]

best version of YT. i love ur version as much as i love faye's one

so lovely

[Sayian505]

Hey, I think I recognize that digital piano. Would it perhaps be the Casio PX-800?

[Nymphetamine2791]

I find myself favoriting almost all your videos because I can't pick a favorite XD

[brain1012]

Just sub. That's all you need for all of his videos.

[Julalaxsa]

kylelandry, can I ask you something? What do you thinkg of FF 13's Lewis Leona's song XD "My hand".

I hope you don't have to play that song ever. Just these originals are perfect.

[J0hnn3hBoi]

Best. Pianist on youtube.

[tluz93]

Damn, man... I just started playing about 3 months ago. Keep up the good work, your skill is pretty much my goal at this point.

[imuLou]

Your playing makes me want to 1. play the game and 2. slave at my piano until I can play like you. Amazing <3

[onelife271]

this is really good .(i play myself that song feel free to take a look)many people play that song a bit to fast but you find the right speed.5 stars (as usual)

[joeywongJY]

wow, you really rocked my socks off! your piano playing skills are so impressive! im jealous, and i will aim to play like you. thanks for inspiring me.

[EndlyRara]

kylelandry..

the best pianist i've ever subscribed...

[SyaoranXiaoLi]

@EndlyRara Correction─Kylelandry the greatest youtube account ever made. Period.

[iianimeboix3]

@EndlyRara i think Fantasiex3 is better, no offense kyle :D but thats just my opinion. This guys really really really good aswell.

[SnaggaSheeYoung]

@EndlyRara Best 3 for me is :

1:Martin Leung

2:Kyle Landry

3:Lara6683 (Youtube Channel)

PS: Top3 for video game music

[MBGeeklord]

Yep. They definitely put Old Man Nebuo to work for FF VIII. This is one of the three special compositions he made.

I can tell you put YOURSELF to work, as well.

[kfir69]

what were the other 2?

[MBGeeklord]

Liberi Fatali, and some other one with a long Latin name. I just beat that game, and it has those three listed together.

It was Eyes On Me, Liberi Fatali, and Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec.

Though, Fithos Lusec etc. is technically part of Liberi Fatali.

[Meteostat]

Perfect! =D

Awesome job :)

[JRAG2288]

i went crazy when i heard this. good job mate!

[idzny]

wow, one of a few that plays this song with a constant tempo, which I found to be veeeery difficult... VERY GOOD

[Spoonym]

Beautifully played!

[bradcurnow]

I just got all teary :')

[Loroths]

That was a fantastic cover. Your playing makes me appreciate music even more...its such a beautiful song.

[frozenboiboi]

That's a really good sounding keyboard u got. Must have been really really expensive. Anyways good job!

[Juilkca]

When it came out it was, but now you can buy it for about 700 - 800 dollars, if you can find one. It's a Yamaha P-120. Kyle now has the P-155 which is alot better than then P-120.

[zh3ll]

I wish i could be there singing it for you :)

[candyluvir]

wow good job well done!

[Violinist05Riquelme]

I like to hear you playing, to relax myself , you are amazing and continue on that XD. I love music , i want to be a good violinist

[Juilkca]

This is exactly what Kyle has done and he knows it very well. Encore Kyle.

[Juilkca]

Grammy Award winning pianist said:

"When you go slowly, you can begin to concentrate on how a piece of music FEELS. If you never thought about that concept, stop right now and observe a moment of silence

as you let it sink in. Part of why you play music is to transfer emotion to other people. So slow down and really feel it.

[alkapown]

word

[jakkebobb]

well.. about the camera agnel.. I get it's hard to aim a camera at a piano (Y) :)

[ebaNelvaNme]

Then you shall do it

[ebaNelvaNme]

You play piano and I see your also a drawer like me!!!!

[brain1012]

May I stuff you full of paper then?

[ebaNelvaNme]

Your choice

[brain1012]

Why yes, I shall.

[Koumpounophobia]

How long have you been playing man? You're mind boggling

[wrw28405]

he's been playing for about 11, or 12 years.

[Juilkca]

Again, indescribable.

I'm getting the Yamaha P-155. Kyle's P-120 inspired to get one in the most recent model. P-120 is discontinued.

[danieljacobradcliffe]

sooooooooo bloody brilliant!!!

now, i'm really really curios on where you got the sheets... argh. i can't find any.

[Noctisffvs13]

Most romantic Final Fantasy game that I ever played even the song is romantic XD

[Bighitta1234]

if you wanna learn the bloody thing go type in "synthesia - eyes on me" or just "synthesia" and scroll down the page...

[heavensfury37]

lol man.. u make it look so easy..

[Bighitta1234]

it is easy...

[Anthrenz]

ny fav song in FF Series

[bellsxandxchimez]

[jeffman217]

[lilamaakamisscutie]

I LOVE THE WAY U play and i also noticed the side art work on the wall very nice ^_^ i very much enjoy the way u play the piano +3

[mastarumput]

i need the music sheet for this song...it sounds way better than the original

[gekisen01]

you make it look so effortless. i'm still trying to figure out which fingers i should use for the keys when theres no numbers to guide me.

[discutelilboy]

wow you're the homosexual cuz you can't appreciate good piano pieces and you know why that is? cuz you're a hater :) and haters suck xD

[Skateclark]

Wow

[hamdizzel4]

wow flawless i can't hear one tiny mistake here absolutely brilliant! great song great playing

[50ulHunt3r]

darling so there you are, with that look on your face (8) it's imposible not to sing this song along T_T XD

[tsubasaISfun]

Unless, of course, you don't know the words. Like me.  I only know a couple here and there...

[tsubasaISfun]

"As if you'll never hurt, as if you'll never doubt...."

Okay, I know a FEW words...

[50ulHunt3r]

jaja the lyrics are so easy to learn, really simple words with a beautiful melody behind T_T

"...shall i be the one for you who pinches you softly but sure"

[MissNeona]

".. If frown is shown then, I will now that you are no dreamer.." :)

Btw it's "as if you're never hurt, as if you're never down" ^ ^

[50ulHunt3r]

totally right ... ;)

[hurstshifter]

I agree however homosexual it may sound. I always hear(sometimes sing) the english version's lyrics when this song is played.

[50ulHunt3r]

jajaj just skip/change the "i'm more than the dress and the voice" and you won't sound so gay xD

[PumpaBeno]

Yeah, eyes on you :D

[nandashaman]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

sooo pretty *-*

i'm learning this one..and it's so beautiful *-*

kyle, perfect ^^

5/5

[NekoHimeArwen]

Man, this sends me back to playing this game for days and days, back when some of the good RPG's didnt take 7 hours to complete. I cried so much at the ending. T_T

[Dreatz]

[Thorgran2]

He wrote "didn't", not "did" :-D

[clarinettedude]

[rachakee]

[lockheart006]

[MissNeona]

Hehe I know the feeling :3

When I first heard this song about a year ago I just kept listening to it all day so I learned the lyrics pretty quickly xD

[krnkid5]

I know this sounds a bit corny but

I can almost hear singing in some parts of this piece

[podiaz13]

soothing... :)

[ltkstone]

Kyle, I would personaly would want to say that your musical performance and choice of song touches me and to many others who enjoy musical pieces such as the one that was posted. I hope you keep posting more magnificent songs!! Cheers

[bkordel]
